Response to Fischbowl

In Response to Carl Fisch's post on the necessity of teachers being technologically literate, I fully agree. I, being one of the people he refers to that calls themselves "technologically naive," am not proud or comfortable with my lack of computer knowledge, and that is why I am trying my hardest to learn before I become an educator. He points out that there are certain standards that we all must adhere to in order to be successful, and if we haven't reached those standards, given a certain amount of time, we should be required to move on to something else.
The writer of this post didn't sugar coat his message. He essentially says to educators and those involved in the process of teaching others, "to either get with the program or get out! " Don't be part of the population that blames their ignorance on being naive, it just won't work in these modern days of communication.
